VI. Pressure Sensitive Laminating...
Note: You must have the Rewind Option for Pressure Sensitive Films in order to laminate with
pressure sensitive material.
1. Load a roll of pressure sensitive film onto the supply mandrel so that it unwinds toward you from the
bottom of the roll.
2. Load an empty film core on the rewind mandrel and place it in position on top of the supply mandrel.
3. Either place a roll of material on the lower mandrel that is at least as wide as the pressure sensitive film
you are using and thread as usual
or use an additional piece of media under the print you will be cold
laminating. This will keep the adhesive from transfering to the rollers.
4. Thread the pressure sensitive film behind the upper idler roller rod.
5. Peel back enough of the release liner to tape it to the empty film core on the take-up mandrel. Tape the
liner to the back of the core and drape the film over both rollers.
6. Set the PRESSURE CONTROL to the appropriate position (CLOSE for laminating; put red mounting pins
in for mounting).
7. Set the FORWARD/REVERSE switch to the FORWARD position.
8. Turn the MOTOR CONTROL ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
9. Turn the MOTOR CONTROL knob far enough to sufficiently pull a feed card into the laminator.
10. Feed the feed card into the front rollers.
11. After the laminator is properly threaded and the poster board has exited the rear of the laminator, make
any necessary adjustments.
VII. Coating Mount Board...
The Entry 4500 is capable of applying an adhesive coating to mount board that has not previous been coated.
